Quiet Confidence: Our F1 Experience!

I know this is super outdated but I have been busy ok! Hahah!

With the kind blessings of Edmund Tay, we got tickets to the qualifying session of the F1 race! Seriously, have never been too keen on F1 especially since last year we tried to watch the inaugural night race on TV and changed channels after around 20 mins? =) But it gets exciting when you are on the scene and get to catch the live action!

We took a shuttle bus from Kallang MRT.

Here we are on the bus, happily showing off our tickets! Btw, they cost $1388 each!

After alighting, we happily made our way to the grounds.

Yes!!!

Before you reach the actual race track, you will go through this place called the F1 Village where there is a stage for live entertainment, F&B outlets and of course, stores for F1 merchandise!

Then we went to find our seats and realised there was nothing much going on other than practice sessions! The qualifying session was from 10pm – 11pm and we were there close to 8! Hmm…. so we explored the grounds.

The lifts that bring VIPs up to the VIP area!

Chicken wings at $10? Are u kidding me or what? Must be specially F1-trained chickens!

So guess what we did? We went to City Hall to chill then came back again! HAHAHH!

Pictures taken from our seats! Basically, what you do is watch the cars whirl by, occasionally take pics and hope that a car will crash near you! Hee! It kinda got a bit boring after a while since we knew nuts about F1! Worse still, the cars were so loud and noisy, we had ear plugs on and couldn’t hear the broadcast commentary! But Edmund’s mum was there and her enthusiasm was contagious! She knew everything about the teams and the competitors! =)
